While ostensibly this is an interview that's part of the press campaign for Sideways, the latest film by Alexander Payne (who gave us one of the classic black comedies of recent years in Election), this interview in The New York Times also touches on the challenges faced by many actors who are trying to succeed in Hollywood. In the case of Ms. Oh, those challenges include being a Canadian of Korean ancestry.
If you've never seen her, you might want to consider renting Last Night, a film written and directed by Don McKellar that deals with how people react to the impending end of the world. It's probably not to all tastes, but I found it rather intriguing. Ms. Oh won the Best Leading Actress Genie (Canadian Oscar) for her performance in that film.
